| SECTION 4 FIRST-AID MEASURES | |
DESCRIPTION OF FIRST AID MEASURES:
EYE CONTACT:
HOLD EYE OPEN AND RINSE SLOWLY AND GENTLY WITH WATER FOR 15-20 MINUTES.
REMOVE CONTACT LENSES, IF PRESENT, AFTER THE FIRST 5 MINUTES, THEN
CONTINUE RINSING EYE.
CALL A POISON CONTROL CENTER OR DOCTOR FOR TREATMENT ADVICE.
SKIN CONTACT:
IF SKIN OR HAIR CONTACT OCCURS:
FLUSH SKIN AND HAIR WITH RUNNING WATER (AND SOAP IF AVAILABLE).

INHALATION:
IF FUMES, AEROSOLS OR COMBUSTION PRODUCTS ARE INHALED REMOVE FROM
CONTAMINATED AREA.
OTHER MEASURES ARE USUALLY UNNECESSARY.
IF SWALLOWED DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
IF VOMITING OCCURS, LEAN PATIENT FORWARD OR PLACE ON LEFT SIDE (HEAD-DOWN
POSITION, IF POSSIBLE) TO MAINTAIN OPEN AIRWAY AND PREVENT ASPIRATION.
OBSERVE THE PATIENT CAREFULLY.
INGESTION:
NEVER GIVE LIQUID TO A PERSON SHOWING SIGNS OF BEING SLEEPY OR WITH REDUCED
AWARENESS; I.E. BECOMING UNCONSCIOUS.
GIVE WATER TO RINSE OUT MOUTH, THEN PROVIDE LIQUID SLOWLY AND AS MUCH AS
CASUALTY CAN COMFORTABLY DRINK.
SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.
AVOID GIVING MILK OR OILS.
AVOID GIVING ALCOHOL.
MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED: SEE SECTION 11
INDICATION OF ANY IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION AND SPECIAL TREATMENT NEEDED:
TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY.
ANY MATERIAL ASPIRATED DURING VOMITING MAY PRODUCE LUNG INJURY. THEREFORE
EMESIS SHOULD NOT BE INDUCED MECHANICALLY OR PHARMACOLOGICALLY. MECHANICAL
MEANS SHOULD BE USED IF IT IS CONSIDERED NECESSARY TO EVACUATE THE STOMACH
CONTENTS; THESE INCLUDE GASTRIC LAVAGE AFTER ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION. IF
SPONTANEOUS VOMITING HAS OCCURRED AFTER INGESTION, THE PATIENT SHOULD BE
MONITORED FOR DIFFICULT BREATHING, AS ADVERSE EFFECTS OF ASPIRATION INTO
THE LUNGS MAY BE DELAYED UP TO 48 HOURS.

| SECTION 13 DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS | |
WASTE TREATMENT METHODS:
PRODUCT / PACKAGING DISPOSAL:
CONTAINERS MAY STILL PRESENT A CHEMICAL HAZARD/ DANGER WHEN EMPTY.
RETURN TO SUPPLIER FOR REUSE/ RECYCLING IF POSSIBLE.
OTHERWISE:
IF CONTAINER CAN NOT BE CLEANED SUFFICIENTLY WELL TO ENSURE THAT RESIDUALS
DO NOT REMAIN OR IF THE CONTAINER CANNOT BE USED TO STORE THE SAME PRODUCT,
THEN PUNCTURE CONTAINERS, TO PREVENT RE-USE, AND BURY AT AN AUTHORISED
LANDFILL.
WHERE POSSIBLE RETAIN LABEL WARNINGS AND SDS AND OBSERVE ALL NOTICES
PERTAINING TO THE PRODUCT.
LEGISLATION ADDRESSING WASTE DISPOSAL REQUIREMENTS MAY DIFFER BY COUNTRY,
STATE AND/ OR TERRITORY. EACH USER MUST REFER TO LAWS OPERATING IN THEIR
AREA. IN SOME AREAS, CERTAIN WASTES MUST BE TRACKED.
A HIERARCHY OF CONTROLS SEEMS TO BE COMMON - THE USER SHOULD INVESTIGATE:
REDUCTION
REUSE
RECYCLING
DISPOSAL (IF ALL ELSE FAILS)
THIS MATERIAL MAY BE RECYCLED IF UNUSED, OR IF IT HAS NOT BEEN CONTAMINATED
SO AS TO MAKE IT UNSUITABLE FOR ITS INTENDED USE. IF IT HAS BEEN
CONTAMINATED, IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO RECLAIM THE PRODUCT BY FILTRATION,
DISTILLATION OR SOME OTHER MEANS. SHELF LIFE CONSIDERATIONS SHOULD ALSO
BE APPLIED IN MAKING DECISIONS OF THIS TYPE. NOTE THAT PROPERTIES OF A
MATERIAL MAY CHANGE IN USE, AND RECYCLING OR REUSE MAY NOT ALWAYS BE
APPROPRIATE.
DO NOT ALLOW WASH WATER FROM CLEANING OR PROCESS EQUIPMENT TO ENTER DRAINS.
IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO COLLECT ALL WASH WATER FOR TREATMENT BEFORE
DISPOSAL.
IN ALL CASES DISPOSAL TO SEWER MAY BE SUBJECT TO LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS
AND THESE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FIRST.
WHERE IN DOUBT CONTACT THE RESPONSIBLE AUTHORITY.
